LMAX Exchange Everest Rugby Challenge

My story

[p]My Story - has suddenly become OUR STORY.[/p][p]That's both Vivienne and John to play Rugby at Altitude![/p][p]Thankyou for taking a look at what this challenge is all about. It means that we will be trekking to 6,600 mts to play rugby. The challenge will be tough - walking to altitude in itself means we will have to adapt to different oxygen levels to breathe, it will be tough to walk, tough to breath and very tough to maintain hand-eye co-ordination during the game! But we will do it, at least we will do our best, our intention is to achieve it. Because, after all we will only be faced with this challenge for 24 days - the children we will help are facing their own daily challenges. The money you donate to help raise funds will be life-changing for some children. Your support and donations will be sincerely appreciated.[/p][p]THE CHALLENGE: to raise money for the Wooden Spoon Charity by taking part in the LMAX Exchange Everest Rugby Challenge.
